YM778.TV Chapter 386 I Want His Job
He came from the Aspire academy, one that anyone here would look down upon. The masters of this hotel wanted to lure William here, make him stay in a normal room, so they could spy on what he was doing.
But that kid came here prepared, asking directly for the most secure rooms in the hotel. Mark would never try to scheme him for a faulted room, one with a broken array or something. Or else the reputation of the hotel would be the price for that.
He decided something else, to raise the prices of renting these rooms by double. And still William accepted the offer and booked one room even with such price.
"Will you pay in advance or…"
"Here," William took one of the big crystals he got from Alfonso, "I heard this is worth one million each, right?"
"Holy sh*t!" from the side, Trevor got his eyes wide open when he saw what William took out, "you… You weren\'t joking or bluffing just now!"
"Surely not!" William gave Trevor a blaming look, one that told Trevor to not question or doubt his master\'s words or actions ever again.
"I wish he was," and Mark inwardly sighed while thinking to himself, "here is something nice… As sir is going to pay in advance, then the price will be lowered by half."
"Is there something like that here?! For real?!!!" Trevor\'s shock escalated when he heard what Mark just said. He thought this was the magical effect of his master, least to his knowledge this was Mark\'s way to correct his earlier fault.
He raised the price to scare William away from these troublesome rooms. But he never expected this kid to accept such a price. So, he had to find a way and lower it to its real value. Or else if news spread, things would be bad for their reputation.
Scamming customers? That was one of the worst accusations for any place like this hotel.
"Sure, why would I lie to you?" and as Mark answered Trevor, the slight change in his tone and expressions didn\'t miss William\'s keen eyes.
He felt this was intentionally done by Mark, and that meant this youth already increased the price in the first place.
"Was he trying to force me to take a normal room? For what?" William became a little vigilant here, decided to fortify the room and training ground there with his own arrays.
"Welcome to our hotel," Mark took three coloured stones, each with a chain that could allow anyone to wear them around their necks. But unlike what Mark expected, William simply accepted his, and stored it inside his ring.
He decided to act in great caution to anything related to this hotel, even to the key needed to access his room.
His stone was bloody red in colour, with faint shimmering that came from the core of that stone. William didn\'t even spare it another glance as he stored it away, leaving the task of thoroughly studying it for later.
"Ahem, you can rest there for half an hour. I\'ll make sure your rooms are ready and will send someone to take you there," Mark knew he showed a weird reaction that he shouldn\'t have.
The stone he gave to William was special, one that could store inside the things one would do for a period of time. By using special methods and techniques, the higher ups here could retrieve these images and see what William did inside the room and training ground.
But it needed to be held on one\'s body to do that. And William just put it away, rendering such a move useless.
"Thanks," Seeing the momentarily weird expression over Mark\'s face made William confident in his early guess. They wanted to spy on him, and that stone had something inside to help them in doing that.
William decided to keep that key inside his ring all the time, not take it out inside his room or training ground to examine it.
"I never imagined you are this rich," and as the three went to sit in a room sized rest place in the lobby, Trevor couldn\'t help but shake his head in regret.
"Don\'t blame me, I just followed the normal prices here," William knew this dude was regretting not asking for more for his services. And so, he reminded him that each profession got a preset price for it. And he got to blame himself for doing such a cheap job.
"How much is he earning then? I want to do the same thing as him!" Trevor seemed not satisfied with his salary, not accepting getting scraps from such a wealthy master.
So, he sat his eyes over Thomas, mistaking that this silent dude was getting much more than himself.
"Hahahaha! You want to be like him? That\'s hilarious!" And when William heard what Trevor said, he couldn\'t help but break out in laughter.
"What? He isn\'t that much stronger than me anyway. I\'m prepared to do whatever he does, as long as I\'m getting more!"
"Trevor, oh dear Trevor… Thomas gets nothing at all. Do you want to be like him?" William winked, and Trevor\'s face turned a bit ugly. He instantly turned to Thomas who simply nodded without showing even the faintest smile or bitterness or anything at all on his face.
"No, no thanks, I\'m good like this," Trevor knew he dug a grave and threw himself in with his greed.
"That\'s better," William laughed, patting Trevor\'s shoulders, "it\'s better to be humble and accept what you can get with your abilities. Don\'t dream to get more unless you have the ability to do so."
